Greetings from the Critique Club...
Hi Smellyfish...
This is a cute shot, but it doesn't seem to hold any particular value to me as a viewer. There are no glaring flaws in it anywhere that really detract from the image. The shadow under the chin is the only thing that particularly catches my attention. It creates a sharp contrast that is eye-catching and draws my attention away from the eyes.
Portrait work that is posted to a challenge like this really needs to have some element(s) that snare the viewer's imagination in some way, since we are not acquainted with the subject.

| Very nice shot! Love the color you captured in her eyes... I was really drawn to that. |

| Cute for sure. Nice spontanious photo. Lovely eye detail. The only thing I would suggest fixing is the slight glare on her forehead (yellowish round spot), just by brushing very slightly over it with semitransparent soft brush. Also, it could have been a bit nicer in vertical format, since her hair is up so nicely. But overall nice photo. |

| Indeed! Good lighting and the colors of hair and skin, as well as the red fabrics in such small amounts, really good together. - 8 |

| Good composition, nicely framed against dark backgroudn makign subject prominent. Image suggests that flash was used though (?) which results in a rather unattracrtive highlight on forehead. |

| Definitely cute, but the flash appears a bit harsh. |

cute is right! :)
making a vertical crop out of this would accentuate her expression, and lead the viewer to her eyes and keep them there. a bit of a glare from the lights, but not too bad.

| Man... I love the hair on this girl. THis image is one of the better children portraits in this challenge. I think you're going to do really well. I lvoe her expression - like she's up to something. I also like the lighting and the fact that the background is black - it really strengthens the overall image. Good luck! |

| for some weird reason this is reminding me of a Björk album cover or something! I think it is the hair and lighting. |

| Bright eyed and bushy tailed - captures the essence of this little girl very well. A square, tight crop, even thought you would lose some hair, would have been OK too. |
